Sixth verse, same as the first.
Now playing: "The Monster Music of Hans J Salter & Frank Skinner" - As played by the Moscow Symphony, with Stromberg conducting.
I'm a sucker for film scores here lately, what with recent purchases of the "Empire Strikes Back" double-disc soundtrack, newfound love for the "Vertigo" soundtrack, and a pending order from Amazon for the "Donnie Darko" and "Ninja Scroll" soundtracks forthcoming.
This disc has the scores for "Son Of Frankenstein," "Invisible Man Returns," and "The Wolf Man." Love the third one, enjoy the first one, haven't seen the second one. Very moody, wonderfully atmospheric music; I'm always amazed at how emotionally charged film orchestration is. Good driving music, for the most part.
The 100 Word Story
He knew that, once he could taste the salty water, he'd be safe.
He clawed his way closer to the sea, trying not to worry about the looming danger overhead. The ocean was so close, the mist from the roaring surf was soothing. He knew now, as hard as he pushed, he’d at least gotten closer to home than his brothers did. He would mourn them when he could.
The shadows of his tormentors passed over him, starkly contrasted against the ground by the moonlight. One dipped sharply, becoming larger. “Not now.”
A wave broke, engulfing him. He was free.
It's going to be really interesting to see what happens to the state of this upcoming WWF vs. TNA war, when Joe Wrestlingfan realizes that TNA puts as many matches (or more) into a one hour show, as WWF puts into two hours. As it stands, for this three hour "Homecoming" show that WWF will be airing when they return to USA, they only have 3 matches announced, and one is Cena/Bischoff (whoopee doo), and a 30 min Ironman match between Angle & Michaels.
There are already three matches announced for the 0ne-hour premiere "TNA: Impact!" show on Oct. 1. Just to give you an idea of what to expect in the next few weeks. Hopefully, this burgeoning TNA vs. WWF war will be good.
If not, there's always the ROH DVDs to order.
Summer's done and in the books.
The weather's already starting to change a bit in the mornings, where there's that chill in the air that makes you shiver, while the sun shines down with bellicose intentions. The only problem I have with this weather is that it makes it hard to accurately dress for work; you can easily get away with a jacket at 9:00 AM, but by 2 you're sweat's collecting slowly in the crack of your ass.
I'm glad I have the professor job, because this kind of weather always reminds me of being in college, and when I can walk across a busy campus while the leaves are changing the look of the landscape, there's a 68-tooth smile spreading across my face faster than Flash's footsteps.
Of course, this means that the college chicks start wearing more clothes, which just creates this different fascination with me, where I start appreciating the girls who still try to look slutty while trying not to freeze their nipples off. Leads to some pretty interesting looks on some young ladies.
I picked up the Undertaker 3-disc set today (in addition to the DVD copy of "Street Trash" ... guess who's starting Halloween Month early?), and I had forgotten how much fun the Undertaker/Bret Hart match for the WWF title was. Michaels reffing added quite a bit to the match, and when 'Taker goes for that arm-twist, rope-walk elbow smash, and Hart shakes the rope and the Dead Man gets crotched ... yeah, no-sell THAT, motherfucker!
There appears to be shit-all coming on Turner Classics this week. Only thing I'd be remotely interested in watching is "To Catch A Thief," (Sept 30) which I have on DVD anyway & can watch right now if I want to.
Rumor has it Venture Brothers hits DVD around March 2006. No more late nights, horrible Monday mornings for me. Whoo-haa!!
Word has it Public Enemy has a new CD coming out soon ... "Rebirth Of A Nation." Hmm ... will it suck, or will it work? Who can say?!
Hadn't made it to the aforementioned, much wished-for "Exorcism of Emily Rose"/"Venom" double feature. One, "Venom" isn't even playing within driving distance of G'wood. Two, got too into the bad reviews of "Emily Rose." But, since when has bad reviews stopped me? Since three, my sleep's been so terribly screwed up by the late nights, early mornings of this week off that I couldn't even see how I'd make it through sitting in a dark theater during the courtroom parts of the film.
Speaking of TNA, our Wal-Mart has the TNA figures out. There was a Christopher Daniels, a Jeff Hardy, and a couple of AJ Styles, Ravens, and about two Abysses.
When they put out the Monty Brown, then someone can holler at me. Hmm ... I also saw a Shelton Benjamin and a Booker T. I wonder if it'd be worth the time and trouble to chase down an action figure set of the SGM Super 30: Black Pro Wrestlers? Double hmmm ...
A whole week on this forum has me asking the question: "Where's everybody at?" No Brent, no Joshua, no Will. Much missed, you guys are.
One more day closer to the end, my friend. Check out the board for the Wall o' Pornstars (SFW, don't worry ... although I'm waiting for some uber-moralist to complain, 'cause I've got the alternate background - Wall o' Cooze [same actresses, just different, ahem, angles] raring to go).
